This article studies a curious serious of apparitions of Lope de Vega’s ghost that attest to his posthumous influence along the centuries and in various European countries. In particular, we study Lope’s ghost in literary texts from seventeenth-century Holland, nineteenth-century France, and the Spain of the early twentieth century, a span of years and countries that seems extensive enough to speak of a tendency. The texts that describe these apparitions are not connected, as the three authors we are studying do not seem to have read each other, but, in any case, we can analyze them to observe how they read Lope de Vega and to know more about Lope’s reception in different contexts.
